The report said I had 1 obstructive apnea, 1 hypopnea, with an apnea-hypopnea index of less than 1. The lowest oxygen saturation was 91. The Dr that wrote the report said "I have no specific recommendations regarding this patient." which was very discouraging for me! I haven't researched narcolepsy much, so maybe I'll look into that. But my Dr is going to write the Rx for the CPAP, so I'll give that a try and see if it helps. Thanks!
